The aim of this thesis was to analyze this policy in the form of minimal social cash transfer of non-contributory basis in the city of Montes Claros, in the period from 1996 to 2010. The development of the research consisted of a literature review on some historical knowledge about people with disabilities and the social paradigms built on society's relationship with these people. A reflection was also made on the issue on the issue of disability in the sociological literature. Finally, we elaborated a historical process of social protection. On the empirical side, next to CRAS, in a quantitative dimension was used as a research strategy, the survey. This survey consisted of records and document analysis through the social records of people with disabilities, receiving the BPC. From the analysis of the data, combined with the theory produced in chapters, it is concluded that the policy of the BPC, in Montes Claros, came to meet the smallest population of people with disabilities, with the possibility of breaking this policy become a social recognition device these citizens, as well as a right of all persons with disabilities and without recourse.
